Each player starts with 3 dinosaurs on the outside of a 4x4 grid. The object of the game is to be the first player to move all 3 of his dinosaurs off the the other side of the grid. There are simple rules for movement including dinos cannot move diagonally, dinos cannot jump over other dinos, and dinos cannot move into opponents starting area. Blocking the other player's pieces is a big part of the game since the dinos cannot jump each other. The game comes with a short strategy guide with playing tips. Dino Dodg-Em is based on the classic "Dodgem" game invented by mathematician Colin Vout.
